PAUPER IMMIGRATION.
correspondence Between Secretary Bayard and the British Minister.

Secretary Bayari makes public the recent correspondence between tho Department of State and Sir Lionel West, tho British Minis ter, on the subject of assisted emigration. Under date of April 9, 1887, Minister West lnqu1ris whether, under existing laws, Irish enlGrants sent out at the public cost, and who have friends in the United States able to EcIp and support them, will be allowed to land, secretary Bayard. In reply, quotes the act of Congress forbidding the landing of s'apy per son unable to take care of himself CT herself without becoming public charge" and says:
 50 lar as the permission to land is con cerneu, the provisions of this act arc clear and explicit. The officers charged with its execu- ton are required to make an examination, and upon he result of that examination in each case depends the decision of the question whether tho p rson seeking cntranca into tho United States shall be permitted to land It Is, therefore, imp ssible to give any general assurance that persons belonging to a particu lar class will not be obnoxious to the proyi slons Of the law. The only test therein pro- yldeu IS tho ability of the intended emigrant to take care of himself or herself without be- coming public charge, and this tc is to be applied lmpartlally to all persons of whatever nationality.
 "The mere fact of poverty has never been regarded as an objection to an emigrant and a large part of those who havo come to our shores have been persons who have relied for support solely upon the exercise of thrift and
 
 be said, the development of the country has in a large degree been due. But persons whose only escape from immediately becoming and remaining charge upon the community is the expected, but entirely contingent, voluntary help and support of friends, are not desirable accession to our population; and their expor- tatlon hlthcr by foreign Government f., order to get rid of the burden of their support could hardly be regarded friendly act or ln harmony with existing laws"
 Hinder dato of Nav 17 NIinistor U ,,t that her Majcsty's Government intimates that the intending immigrants arc not paupers, but crofters, whose passages are only partly paid from public funds, and desires to know whether this affects in any way the tenor of tho Score tarys previous statement. In reply the Secre- tary says:
 For the reasons stated in my note of the 7th inst, the department is un ble to give any assurance that any particular class of immi- grants will be permitted to land. Tho pro- visions of the law look to the actual condition of each person and are impartial in their oper ation."

His conduct in his Southern tour has been shameful toward the negroes, and in Charleston he positively re- fused to allow the representation in his evan gelic meetings of the colorcd churches of the city, placing caste above Christianity. I want. also, to denounce the Rev. John H. Vincent of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who placed the negr, outside the pale of humanity"
 "The committee" said Dr. Derrick, twill re- port on both these questions, and with no ull- certain voice. We have a double cross to bear, and are more cordially received in the haunts of vice than in the alleged temples of Christ. This bronze casket (pointing to himself) con- tains as bright jewel as ever glistened in the whitest casket on Gods footstool."

An Interestinu Homa.

A lady describes a home in a New England manufacturing town, which has interested us very much. Eight young women, all workers in straw, hired a house in common, placed in it widowed sister of one of them as housek eepcr, furnished it as best they could, and set up family life, all sharing the expense equally. Tho experiment. has proved very su 'cess:ul. Occasion lily they give a modest party, and the house is rccog- n;zed in the town as part of it's social attractions. There is something very pleasant about this departure from the regulation boarding house. Its success would demand rare qualities of mind and heart ill the inmatcs--a union of good temper and good principle not always found in eight individuals of the same household. - New York Ledge.

WasherwOmeM of Paris.

Although about ten thousand wash- ing machines have been invented in America and hundreds of agents arc going about industriously disposing of them to weary and confiding housewives as labor saving contrivanccs, washing continues to be about as laborious an occupation as ever, which none but the most muscular of the sex are able to en- durc. It is a singular fact that washing machines find no market in Paris. There the women who pursue washing as an occupation do it in quite primitive way gathering on the banks of the Seine and using rough stones to rub the garments on, after saturating them in the river and applying quantity of soap. Others arc housed in great double deck boats moorcd to the shore, the lower deck being devoted to the washing and the up- per used for drying purposes. Glance in- to a craft of that description as you pass by on board one of those swiftly gliding packets-thc omnibuses of the Seine and you will sec strong, muscular women vigorously rubbing garments on boards, but no washir g machines. - [Siftings.

What Sort of Girls Are Lovable.


 "What k1nd of girls are lovablc2" asks an old bachelor stcrnly, in the Bos- ton Globe. 'That, good sir, depends q great deal upon what kind of person is going to love them." Here is rather pretty summing up from the thought and expericnce-of person who has price in being in some sort connoisscur of lovabiiity: ''Thc gifts that are lova- ble," says he, ''are these: Girls without an undesirable love of liberty and craze for individuallsm; girls who will let themselves be guided; girls who have the filial sentiment well developed, and who feel the love of daughter for the woman who acts as their mother; girls who know that every day and all day long can not be devoted to holiday mak- ing without the intervention of duties more or less irksome; girls who when they can gather them, accept their roses with frank and girlish sincerity of pleas ure, and when they are denied, submit without repining to the inevitable harl- ships of circumstances-these are the girls whose ompanionshlp gladdens and does Tot oppress or distract the old, whose sweetness and ready submission to the reasonable control of authority mako life so pleasant and their charge so light to those whose care they are."
